The Divorced Heiress Revenge (Bella Thompson) novel Chapter 1350

Though James pretended to look unfazed, his legs were already shaking and numb beneath his pants.

Hunter also kept his mouth shut, feeling intimidated by the intense stare.

Bella and Justin were left completely shocked, needing a moment to collect themselves.

‘Wow, Asher’s protective instinct is truly intense!’

Bella knew Asher’s personality better than anyone. He might seem selfish and uninterested, even cold and distant, but in human terms, he just lacked a bit of warmth.

Apart from his own family, there was also Steven, who had been by Asher’s side for a long time.

Asher typically would not show much concern for anyone else. But at this particular moment, he displayed an unusual level of care for Arnold that was truly surprising.

It was then that Bella happened to catch Arnold looking at her older brother with such warmth and tenderness that it almost seemed weird.

Bella was confused. ‘Why is the vibe so weird? Why do they seem a little bit at odds with each other?’

Before Bella could fully grasp it, Hunter expressed his frustration and said, “But there were still some minor injuries. According to our country’s laws, even if the injury is found to be minor, it can lead to a prison sentence of up to three years. Steven won’t get away with imprisonment!”

Hunter felt an intense desire to shred Steven’s name to pieces. It was hard to believe that he was actually Steven’s older brother, someone with close family connections. His excessive enjoyment of pleasures and his insatiable appetite for destroying others turned him into a ruthless monster without any sense of guilt.

Asher was not too concerned about Hunter. After all, he was just a minion for the Iverson family. Naturally, Asher wanted to speak with his boss. ”Steven didn't lay a finger on Charles from start to finish, even though he really wanted to. I'm the one who beat Charles, as proven by the video.”

As he talked, his gaze shifted to Arnold, and his tone softened. “Arnold, can you play the video for me?”

Arnold hesitated, bit his lip, took out his phone, and showed a video to everyone. Charles’ screams echoed through the entire silent office. The scene clearly captured Asher relentlessly beating Charles’ until the latter was bleeding all over.

“Will this work? It’s concrete evidence,” Asher said with a sly grin, his smile as chilling as the darkness of a strikingly handsome demon.

Superintendent Donald and Hunter felt numb as they stared with darkened eyes. The plan to frame Steven was completely shattered by this video.

“Ash, how could you…?” Bella gasped and leaned into Justin’s embrace.

His strong arms held her trembling shoulder as he looked at Asher with a storm of emotions in his heart.

Justin knew what Asher was up to.

Right from the start, Asher had expected that there would be issues down the line, so he had made early arrangements to deal with any unexpected situations.
